BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

PCB Group, Inc. Acquisition

On July 5, 2016, we acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of PCB for a purchase price of $581,773 subject to certain adjustments for cash, indebtedness, transaction costs and the level of net working capital that were made at closing. The transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. PCB is a manufacturer of piezoelectric sensors and components used for pressure, force and vibration measurement and is headquartered in Depew, New York. We funded the acquisition of PCB with existing cash on hand as well as funds raised through borrowings under the Term Facility in an aggregate principal amount of $460,000, proceeds from registered public offerings of our TEUs and common stock and the $43,500 of restricted cash that was placed in escrow during the third quarter of fiscal year 2016 to secure termination fees that would have become payable to PCB had the acquisition not occurred under the definitive purchase agreement. The restricted cash was paid to the shareholders of PCB as part of the estimated purchase price. See Note 5 and Note 9 for additional financing information.

The acquired assets, liabilities and operating results have been included in our financial statements within Sensors from the date of acquisition. We included $129,197 of revenue and operating income of $2,773 for the first three quarters of fiscal year 2017 and $44,503 of revenue and an operating loss of $2,143 for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016 from PCB in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The operating income in fiscal year 2017 and the operating loss in fiscal year 2016 include a fair value adjustment to the acquired PCB inventory of $7,975 and $7,916, respectively. Costs of $10,170 associated with the acquisition of PCB were expensed as incurred in the Consolidated Statements of Income within the Sensors segment in fiscal year 2016.

The final purchase price of PCB consisted of the following:



(in thousands)
Consideration paid to PCB shareholders and employees¹	$	580,000
Consideration for PCB closing cash	11,612
Deferred endowment consideration²	1,000
Net preacquisition earn-out	(141		)
Net working capital adjustment³	(147		)
Cash acquired	(10,551		)
Total estimated purchase price, net of cash acquired	$	581,773


¹	Of the $580,000 consideration paid to PCB, we paid $10,000 directly to employees of PCB on behalf of the PCB shareholders during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016. The payment was made pursuant to the definitive purchase agreement entered into with PCB in connection with the acquisition.


²	The deferred endowment consideration was paid during the third quarter of fiscal year 2017.


³	Payment was received for the net working capital adjustment during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017.

PCB's products include accelerometers, microphones, calibration systems, pressure sensors, load and torque sensors, force sensors, single- and multi-channel telemetry, ground fault detection and smart sensing solutions. PCB serves end markets including test and measurement, power and energy, aerospace and defense, industrial measurement and instrumentation, automotive and rail and acoustics and environmental noise monitoring. The acquisition strengthens our current Sensors business with complementary sensor products and expands channels to market, balancing the revenue mix between Test and Sensors, while enhancing our margin profile and creating significant cross-selling opportunities across the combined portfolio.

The following table summarizes the final fair value measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed net of cash acquired as of the date of acquisition:



(in thousands)
Assets
Accounts receivable	$	21,008
Inventories	57,981
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	2,362
Property and equipment	19,649
Intangible assets
Customer lists	153,900
Trademarks and trade names	58,500
Technology	35,300
Land-use rights	1,200
Other long-term assets	1,796
Total identifiable assets acquired	351,696
Liabilities
Accounts payable	(6,786		)
Accrued payroll and related costs	(7,137		)
Non-current deferred tax liability	(94,141		)
Other accrued and long-term liabilities	(5,037		)
Total identifiable liabilities acquired	(113,101		)

Net identifiable assets acquired	238,595
Goodwill	343,178
Total estimated purchase price consideration, net of cash acquired	$	581,773

The fair value measurement was completed as of July 1, 2017. Measurement period adjustments were recorded in fiscal year 2017 and were not material. The impact to the Consolidated Statements of Income for fiscal year 2017 related to income effects that would have been recognized in the prior year if the measurement period adjustments were recorded at acquisition date was not material. The gross amount of the accounts receivable acquired was $21,726, of which $718 was expected to be uncollectible as of completion of fair value measurement as of July 1, 2017.

Goodwill was calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the total purchase price consideration and the fair value of the net assets acquired and represents the future economic benefits that we expect to achieve as a result of the acquisition. This resulted in a purchase price in excess of the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. The purchase price also included the fair value of other assets that were not identifiable, not separately recognizable under accounting rules (e.g., assembled workforce) of immaterial value in addition to a going concern element that represents our ability to earn a higher rate of return on the group of assets than would be expected on the separate assets as determined during the valuation process. Based on the fair value measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we allocated $343,178 to goodwill for the expected synergies from combining PCB with our existing business. All of the goodwill was assigned to Sensors. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes.

The fair value of acquired identifiable assets was determined using the income approach on an individual project basis. In performing these valuations, the key underlying probability-adjusted assumptions of the discounted cash flows were projected revenues, gross margin expectations and operating cost estimates. The valuations were based on the information that was available as of the acquisition date and the expectations and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by us. There are inherent uncertainties and management judgment required in these determinations. The fair value measurements of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based on valuations involving significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the acquired intangible assets was $248,900. The expected lives of the acquired intangible assets are approximately 15 years for developed technology, 16 years for customer lists, 5 years for leasehold interest and 3 years for finite-lived trademarks and trade names. The acquired intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis. Trade names having a value of $57,500 are considered to have indefinite lives.

Pro Forma Financial Information (Unaudited)

The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations of MTS Systems Corporation as if the acquisition of PCB had occurred as of the beginning of the fiscal years ended October 1, 2016 and October 3, 2015. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what our consolidated results of operations actually would have been had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of each fiscal year. In addition, the unaudited pro forma financial information does not attempt to project the future results of operations of the combined company.



(in thousands except per share data)	2016		2015
Revenue	$	782,379	$	743,595
Net income	18,779		39,324

Earnings per share
Basic	$	0.93	$	2.05
Diluted	0.92		2.04

The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on certain assumptions which we believe are reasonable, directly attributable to the transactions, factually supportable and do not reflect the cost of any integration activities or the benefits from the acquisition of PCB and synergies that may be derived from any integration activities.

The unaudited pro forma financial information above gives effect to the following:


•	Incremental amortization and depreciation expense related to the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets and property, plant and equipment from the purchase price allocation.


•	Exclusion of the purchase accounting impact of the incremental charge reported in cost of sales for the sale of acquired inventory that was written-up to fair value of $7,916.


•	Includes $22,968 of interest expense on outstanding debt entered into as part of funding the acquisition.


•	Pro forma adjustments tax affected by 20% tax rate.


•	Weighted average shares outstanding was adjusted to increase the amount by 4,179 shares for both basic and diluted shares in the earnings per share calculation to reflect the financing of the acquisition of PCB in the form of the issuance of shares of common stock and the minimum shares to be issued for our TEUs at the minimum settlement rate.

Our pro forma 2016 and 2015 fiscal years ended on October 1, 2016 and October 3, 2015, respectively, while PCB's fiscal years ended on December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The full-year unaudited pro forma financial information for fiscal year 2016 combines our audited financial information for the fiscal year ended October 1, 2016 and the unaudited financial information of PCB for the 12 months ended October 1, 2016. The unaudited financial information of PCB for the 12 months ended October 1, 2016 was determined by adding PCB's unaudited financial information for the three months ended December 31, 2015 (PCB's fourth quarter of 2015), the unaudited financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2016 (PCB's first six months of 2016) and the audited financial information of PCB for the period from acquisition (July 5, 2016) to October 1, 2016. The full-year unaudited pro forma financial information for fiscal year 2015 combines our audited financial information for the fiscal year ended October 3, 2015 and the audited financial information of PCB for the year ended December 31, 2015. Due to the different fiscal year ends, the pro forma statement of income for both fiscal year 2016 and 2015 included PCB's unaudited financial information for the three months ended December 31, 2015 (PCB's fourth quarter of 2015). Summarized operating information about the duplicated quarter is as follows:
